Description Razvan Corneliu C.R. VILT 2003-10-30 21:15:36 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031016

Description of problem:
running pkgorder ./i386/ i386 > ./pkgorder.txt
gives the a file not found error for:
/RedHat/base/comps.xml
That is an absolute path. It should be
/$PATH_TO_DISTRIB_TREE/RedHat/base/comps.xml instead.

The exec problem is in the /usr/lib/anaconda/hdrlist.py at line 882, where, due
to my lack of python knowledge and time, to make the script work I had to write
the path like below:
file =
urllib2.urlopen("file:///mnt/distrib/linux360-1.0test0/i386/RedHat/base/comps.xml")

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get a distribution tree!
2. start building it.
3. At pkgorder the crash occurs.
    

Actual Results:  The script crashes.

Expected Results:  The script should have opened the "RedHat/base/comps.xml"
file instead of the /RedHat/base/comps.xml.

Looks like the "RedHat" should be replaced with "Fedora"
Comment 2 Razvan Corneliu C.R. VILT 2003-10-31 02:53:22 UTC 
I already created a sym-link from RedHat to Fedora because anaconda wanted
RedHat and not fedora. Weird.

You need to add another argument to your pkgorder invocation, eg
 pkgorder ./i386/ i386 Fedora
